    In this week’s episode, Jimmy takes on the unexpected connection between ancient fortifications and modern cybersecurity. With his signature mix of humor, curiosity, and overconfidence, he explores how the Great Wall of China wasn’t just a wall—it was a symbol, a system, and a psychological statement. Drawing parallels to today’s firewalls, Jimmy breaks down why layering defenses has always been the key to keeping invaders at bay, whether they’re riding on horseback or hiding behind phishing emails.

    But this isn’t just a history lesson. Jimmy dives into how metaphors shape our understanding of complex technologies and why a “firewall” isn’t just a cool name—it’s a story we all rely on. Along the way, he shares his own adventures in IT project management, drops a few cringe-worthy analogies, and manages to turn what could’ve been a canceled episode into one of his most engaging solo deep dives yet.

    If you’ve ever wondered what ancient emperors, modern hackers, and digital bouncers have in common, this episode will keep you laughing, learning, and rethinking your passwords. Don’t miss Jimmy’s fearless exploration into the art and science of defense, served with a side of googled facts and plenty of laughs.
